The Journey Begins!

Over the next 30 days, I will be
immersing myself in the vegetarian lifestyle for my English 104 class. I will be updating my followers on my journey
through this blog, and hope to inform you all on the health benefits and risks
in a non-meat diet, and well as the reasons for someone choosing to become a
vegetarian.

I will be
eating a semi-vegetarian menu, which means I will still be eating fish, eggs,
and other animal products that do not murder the animal in the process. I personally have had trouble with the attempt
before in the past, where I was not getting enough nutrients from my vegetarian
food selections of cheese, bread, and candy.
Now that I am older and have more information on the subject, I hope to
adopt this lifestyle change, even after the 30 days.

This
immersion project might be difficult at times, such as Spring Break when I will
be in New York City surrounded by delicious foods. I have been a meat-eater for over 7 years
now, ever since my one year trial in 8th grade, so learning how to
control my diet might be a problem I will have to conquer very soon.
